Recent respective form guides

Barnsley's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Tykes have scored 5, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

West Brom.'s away form is none too clever either, tasting just one defeat in their last six, and picking up four good wins. Those games have seen the The Baggies pummel 13 goals, and let in 6.

Barnsley are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola Championship with a return of just 5 points from their 9 games thus far. West Brom. are holding the final promotion place in the Coca-Cola Championship, and have accumulated 20 points from the 9 games they have played so far.
